Hi I’m on week 9 run 2 and Forbes the first time since starting c25k I got a horrendous stitch about half way through my run it was so painful and I had to stop. Any advice? Tia

The advice in the C25K commentary is to slow down and take several full deep breaths, given to me by Laura on the podcast version.

I have only used it once and it worked.

Avoid drinking while running.
